==Dialogue questions==

Does anyone has an opinion of the dialogue might be in the following lines?

<blockquote>
'''STRONG BAD:''' {singing} It's an email, baby. (HERE)
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
'''BUBSAMECIUM:''' Certainly! Six tubes (HERE) of coming right up!
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
'''HOMESTARMECIUM:''' Oh, (HERE). Um, these are for my twin brother!
</blockquote>

'''EDIT:''' Just gotten word it may be '''Strongbadophage'''.

It would be great if anyone knew. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 05:34, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:Here's one: I'd bet my important object that Bubsamecium is saying "rear-end cream". --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

:The "Bubsamecium" line sounds like "rear-end cream" to me. Provided the "(HERE)" was put in the right spot up there. Also, I think Baby Strong Sad said "Diapersmith" (as it's the baby Poopsmith and all...) -[[User:YK|YK]] 05:40, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
::Ditto that, YK. I'd further like to add that I think that the Strong Bad virus-looking thing is called "Strongbadophage". That's what I put on [[Twin Characters]]. I had to watch it several times to figure that out. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
:::Absolutely no clue what the word after "It's an e-mail, baby!" is, though. Sounds like "lunge juice"... that can't be right. -[[User:YK|YK]] 05:44, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
::::Sounds like "love juice" to me... Or "lunch juice". Which are just as weird. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

:::::I heard "lunch juice" and thought I was nuts until I saw you guys had similar things. -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 05:52, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
::::::Sigh—I feel a long and uncivil STUFF (or at least Talk battle) coming on. Currently the article reads "And the email baby loves juice". While this comes the closest to making any sense, it's just not what I hear. My hearing (though I don't assert it as the only possible one) is "It's a e-mail, baby! lunch juice." —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 15:42, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Here's another: On first viewing, I heard Baby Strong Bad's line as "I'm pretending I'm playing ''violent'' video games!" What's in the article is "''better'' video games"; on closer listening it ''does'' sound like that, but is pretty difficult to make out anyway. It could be "vinyl" as far as we can tell! So: "violent" certainly makes more sense. But is it simply for that reason (contextual suggestion) that I "heard" it? —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 16:02, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:I heard better on multiple viewings {{User:Some HSR themed username/sig}} 16:17, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
::i agree with abdiviklas. it's what i heard. plus, we know half of the strong bad email intros don't make sense. [[User:Seriously|Seriously]] 20:32, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

== Continuity ==

This could probably go without saying, but I think we need to consider all of the flashbacks from this toon (and probably the one from [[flashback]], too) to be apocryphal. They just don't jive with established continuity. I think [[stand-up]] probably actually happened in their timeline, as well as [[The Secrets That I Keep]]. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:45, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:I'll second that... Especially the paramecium bits. ;) --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::Indeed. -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 05:55, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
::Hey, Strong Bad even *admits* here that he has a "very unphotographic memory". As if his flashback lies weren't obvious before, they are *now*. =P (BTW, is it just me, or does the "paramecium Homestar" resemble the Poopsmith more than Homestar? Weird misshapen eyes, odd mouth shape, few messy hairs... probably coincidence, but weird.) -[[User:YK|YK]] 05:58, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:::I say it's comparible to the movie ''Big Fish'', where real events are skewed and altered to make a more interesting story. [[User:TheRealZajac|TheRealZajac]]

::::Guy above me- leave your signature, please. Just type four ~'s. ''{edit:signed for}'' As for continuity, It's a comedy. I really don't ever remember seeing a comedy that had continuity. Sometimes the lack of continuity adds to the humor, although I wouldn't necessarily say it does for this. Maybe. Continuity is usually only important in serious plot drama and such. [[User:Agentjs03|Agentjs03]] 13:40, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:::::There are lots of comedies that pay careful attention to continuity. ''[[IMDb:tt0285403|Scrubs]]'', for example. And TBC in general keep it pretty consistent. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:50, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

:The Muppet Babies-style flashback in particular closely resembles the Muppet Babies show in terms of discontinuity. You have a collection of characters who are of varying ages in the original toon, PLUS other movies in the Muppet series that establish different scenarios of how the characters met each other. I think it's a parody of the Muppet chronology as much as it is Strong Bad's really bad memory.[[User:Spell4yr|Spell4yr]] 20:17, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

== Small question... ==

*Would it be of consequence to mention that this is the shortest [[Lappy 486]] email so far? -- [[User:Frickinsellout|Frickinsellout]] 07:08, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
*it is? woah! [[User:Seriously|Seriously]] 20:13, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

== Stampers! ==

I definitely hear an 's' in front of Marzipan's "dampers!" Does anyone else?[[User:Trelawney|Trelawney]] 08:28, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Me too. I heard "scampers" more clearly than "dampers". It could have been "stampers". [[User:TaranchulaVamp15|TaranchulaVamp15]] 12:35, 9 Jan 2006 (CST)

== Accent on striped ==

Shouldn't the accent over the e in striped go upper-left to lower-right (the french ''accent grave'')?
:[[Wikipedia:Grave accent#Use in English]] suggests yes, although [[Wikipedia:Acute accent#Use in English]] seems contradictory. But my gut sides with you, IP. Changed accordingly. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 15:10, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

::Are we doing the same thing with "Stripe-ed Green Rabbit with Two Butts" for [[New Boots]]? {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 20:07, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:::Yes, we should totally use striped with accent on both articles. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 20:10, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

== Sickly Sam Pillar ==

In the Easter egg at the end, when Sickly Sam coughs/wheezes and disappears, and the pillar appears in his place... Could this be a reference to something? Isn't there some sort of myth where people were turned into salt pillars? -[[User:Polly|Polly]] 17:24, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:There's the story of Lot's wife in the Bible, but I doubt there's a connection to this. [[User:EASports|EASports]]
::I'd be willing to give it a little consideration as a reference, but it would be a loose one at best, and I doubt it would survive a STUFF process. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 17:59, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:::I admit it occurred to me as well, but I don't think there's a real reference here. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:47, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
::::That entire scene makes no sense whatsoever. :P {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 20:11, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:::::this is probably just another instance of strong bad's apocryphal stortelling. probably doesn't have a reference.[[User:Seriously|Seriously]] 20:20, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

:Strong-sad-ghost-in-rome is replaced by a DORIC column. get it? Doric.. Dorrr...kkk
Would be pretty obscure if true, but...

==Marz-lody==

Did anyone else see a resemblance to Melody from [[Mellow Mushroom]] in Marzipan's high school self? [[User:TaranchulaVamp15|TaranchulaVamp15]] 12:40, 9 Jan 2006 (CST)

yeah, though i don't know why they would make a reference to her. most people (not counting the wiki) do not know about the site, let alone their creation of it. [[User:Seriously|Seriously]] 20:22, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:Well, that's what references are for. Inside jokes, sort of. Even if only TBC get it. [[User:Xyzzyka|Xyzzyka]] 21:12, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

== Adventure ==

If Strong Bad was referring to the Atari Dragon, and it ate two of his pixels, he was probably playing Adventure, and the second pixel was probably the black dot that activated the easter egg.
:That sounds logical to me... Also, isn't that sound effect an Adventure noise? I can't quite place it, although I know I've heard it before... --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
::The sound effect in question is used on H*R in two places: In [[Secret Collect]] when you hit a force field, and on [[Main Page 13]] for the Store button. I don't know which actual 2600 game it was used in, though - I don't think it was Adventure. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 20:14, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:::Well, whatever game it was in, now I'm-a add it to My Pride And Joy, [[Sound Effects]]. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

== cellular strong bad ==
guys, it sounds like homestar says "strongbadiophage." should that be the name, or is it just homestar calling strong bad stongo badio again? if homestar is, then yes, it would be perfectly logical to call him strongbadophage. but what if he isn't?[[User:Seriously|Seriously]] 20:42, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
:Check the explanations. Strongbadiophage is based on a [[Wikipedia:Bacteriophage|bacteriophage]]. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

ah. thank you. that clears everything up.[[User:Seriously|Seriously]] 20:46, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

==Coach Z Hat==

Is it just me, or is Strong Bad wearing Coach Z's hat in High School? -- [[User:Grabboarm700|Grabboarm700]]
:Same style, different colour. Not precisely Coach Z's, but of the same brand, if you will. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

:It seems kind of a lighter color, I guess. -[[User:Grabboarm700|Grabboarm700]]

Listening to it again, it is definitely a bit indistinct because of the doubling, but I think the telltale sign that it's "Pennzoil" is that the first syllable in the word is a short "e", not a short "i". So you'd either have "ten-foil", "ten-zoil", "ten-soil", "pen-soil", or "pen-zoil" (and the last one properly translates to the Pennzoil brand name, as there is no English word "penzoil", and Homsar doesn't have a history of making up words). {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 21:27, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

:::::*Medieval name for a herald’s trumpet; it was long and straight with a cylindrical or slightly conical bore.

The bell joint was flared to varying degrees. Buisines are frequently shown bearing the banner of a noble person.
:::::Ultimately, what would differentiate between trumpet and horn is whether it has a cylindrical or conical bore, and actually, examining the cartoon, it sure looks conical (which justifies his name).

== Regrets... ==

''This section used to be called: '''I regret regretting, what I had regretted regretting that one regretful day'''. ''

Shouldn't there be at least ''some'' mention or link of the quote to its reference (even if it was different from Strong Bad's) regarding the "I regret everything quote". The reasons I ask this are:
#Knowing that the quote comes from an Edith Piaf Song and the French Foreign legion (much in the same way [[do over]] makes mention of it) is actually quite informative. I had heard the song before I'm sure, but when I saw the toon, I '''never''' made the connection until I read the fun fact! Much less did I know that the French Foreign Legion adopted that as it's motto.
#Having those links here and in do over would seem redundant, but it is necessary to have in both instances, or at least be able to find that information when reading either entry. Which leads me to...
#...even if the quotes are not related, it's still somewhat worthy to note that the quote has been used once before (even if totally reversed) by TBC. It may not be a pattern, but it's a start (two points do define a line you know... three can define a <s>space</s> plane! (Unless they're in the same line.) And the [[Wikipedia:3-SAT|3-Satisfiability problem]] is in [[Wikipedia:NP|NP]].) :)
So... yeah. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 18:46, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
:I don't think it's a reference to any of those things:
:#"I regret nothing" are just famous last words. I completely got the "I regret everything" joke without even needing to know that someone has incorporated it into a song and an official motto.
:#The context in [[do over]] is completely different. Strong Bad is literally saying he regrets nothing to discourage Homestar (as The Cheat) from interfering. He's not saying last words.
:#Three nonlinear points define a ''plane'', not a space. For a space, you need ''four'' nonplanar points.
:In conclusion... San Dimas High School football rules! — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:54, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
::Yeah the title was annoyingly long. Oh! Did I say space! Crap I meant to say three points in space define a plane but well ... oh well. Actually... you could say I was still right cuz I could fudge definitions and claim that what I meant was that a plane is in fact a two-dimensional space and as such can be referred to as a space too! (Much in the same way a cross section of a higher dimentional space is called a hyperplane, and that cross section itself can be seen as a space!) -- I'd aspire to be a politician, but there too I'd get blank stares.
::Oh! I see the difference now! Okay then, how does Strong bad saying "I regret nothing" in do over relate to the song and the motto? (Yes, I know this sentence belongs in [[Talk:do over|that talk page]], and yes, I should read the entire transcript before asking such questions... but it's gotta flow and I already did it anyway).

:::Well, you inspired me to delete it from the other toon. I don't see how Strong Bad could be referring to something that's not even in English. I suppose I could have put it through the formal process (and if I was hasty (which I don't think I was), maybe someone else will), but when it comes to "do over" and STUFF, I just don't have the strength. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:48, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
::::Inspired huh? Well you gotta link to [[Wikipedia:%C3%89dith_Piaf|Edith Piaf]] ''somewhere'' in this wiki, even if it's just a talk page! ;) --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 20:11, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Could the fact in question be acceptable in Trivia instead of Real World References? Because It's dot com's right; I've heard and even used the phrase before without knowing about Edith Piaf, and it's possible that TBC have to. It certainly isn't an overt reference. But on the other hand it ''is'' a bit of info that I'd like to see on the page. I see this as comparable to [[Halloween_Fairstival#Real-World_References|Wine, Women, and Song]], which we saw fit to accept unanimously. There too we dealt with a phrase that has entered common usage sufficiently that few are familiar with its ultimate origin. (But there are differences here and I'm not entirely convinced in my own mind. I'd be happy with either result, really.) —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 22:09, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
:Well, if we're explaining why Coach Z says what he says, then that would go under Explanations. I'm still struggling to see, however, how this rises to the fun fact level. If you take the straight opposite of "I regret everything," you get "I regret nothing," which itself can be simplified to "no regrets"—a very common phrase. And that's what I think TBC were going for: As Coach Z faces what could very well be his impending doom, his life flashes before his eyes, but instead of having no regrets, he regrets everything. (This whole line of thought is making me really sad for the Coach.) But that's the joke, and I think enough people get it on first viewing that it doesn't need to be and shouldn't be explained. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:30, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

*Bubs' parade float is a reference to Coach Z's and Bubs' ongoing and secretive rivalry for Marzipan's affection as witnessed in [[Happy Fireworks!]] and [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 3.0]]. His float could also arguably be considered a response to Coach Z's "inapprapriate" comments towards Marzipan, although it was probably built before the comments took place. —[[User:Colonel Burnsides|Colonel Burnsides]]

::::::It's always awesome when that happens. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
:Actually, I'm a little ambivalent about regarding the QOTW text as binding for what we should put in the transcript. Here's two explanations:
:#They're aware of the wiki, and put "zader matermorts" to encourage us to change it to that in the transcript.
:#They put that as the QOTW text sort of jokingly, since that ''is'' exactly what Matt's rendering of the line sounds like. I.e. they're highlighting the way the ''s'' became a ''z'' sound and the ''d''-ness of the ''t'', etc. However, it would still be reasonable to have the transcript read "I say tomatermorts."
:I kind of prefer the second option myself, even though I know solid evidence is against me. After all, we don't transcribe Homestaw's twouble with his awws or Bubs' habit of droppin' the endin' ''g''s in words. But like I said, I'm ambivalent. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 03:18, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
:Exactly. This isnt a phonetic pronunciation listing. We're supposed to list WHAT they are saying not HOW they are saying it.
::Except that halfway through what Coach Z is saying, he stops speaking recognizable English. If "say termatermorts" were a real phrase, then there might be a reason not to spell it "zader matermorts". But absent that, I see no reason ''not'' to spell it exactly as they have spelled it, even if it was partly a joke. The whole phrase is a joke. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:07, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
I listen and hear "zader matermorts". What are we disputing about, anyway? --{{User:Salty/sig}} 22:59, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
:How could you hear "zader matermorts" and not "zay dermatermorts"? Because even "zay dermatermorts" would be more ok by me than what we have now. Coach Z's "thing" is not that he suddenly starts speaking in nonsense. His thing is that he occasionally screws up words. Its pretty late, but i can't even think of another instance where he has said two nonsense words in a row.
::I'm not sure you're understanding why we worded it the way we did: The Brothers Chaps themelves spelt it "I zader matermorts" in the [[Quote of the Week]]. We didn't write it this way originally, but when they spelt it that way, we changed it to match what they did. Sorry if you already knew that, but that's our reasoning. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 07:54, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

'''STRONG SAD:''' No, no! Maybe I just need to do this some more. Credenza!!!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, you're right! Poopsmith? Did you give me some bum candy?

'''BUBS:''' ''{snickers}'' He sure did!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Any minute now. ''{electrical disturbances occur}'' Oooo!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Whoa! Electrical disturbances. There's definitely a powerful spirit present.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Do you mean, like, the spirit of giving?

''{Outside, the King of Town is eating a string of candy corn lights}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oot oh. oot ooh.

''{Marzipan walks up}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' You've got to be kidding me! Stop doing that right now.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Whoa. The lights went out.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa. Magic.

'''BUBS:''' Yup. I've dealt with this before. Lights: definitely out.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' And somebody's a-grabbin' a-my butt.

''{the lights come on and there is a ficus plant on the table}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Credenza! You're alive!

== Easter Eggs ==
*When you can give Bubs and Coach Z candy, any mouse click that doesn't result in candy being given results in Stinkoman appearing, dressed as Speed Racer—see the transcript.

*When Homestar asks "Did you give me some bum candy?" you can click on The Poopsmith's head to see Homsar's secret costume, Slash from Guns N Roses.
:'''HOMSAR:''' I'm open for interpretations!

*At the end when everyone is standing around, click the rightmost candycorn light (the one that's not lit) to see a bonus video! See "External Links" to view this video.
:''{Puppet Homestar is at a tennis court dressed as John McEnroe, holding a tennis racket.}''

:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Seriously! You can't be serious! That ball was on the line! ''{taps ground with his racket}'' Come on! I don't believe this. ''{he throws his racket on the ground and storms off.}''

*After the cartoon is over you can click on some people to make things happen. These people are:
**'''The Poopsmith'''
*:''{The Poopsmith rockets off to the right, flaming. (This is M.Bison's Psycho Crusher move)}''
*:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool. Flaming Poopsmith.
*:''{The Poopsmith reappears from the left.}''
**'''Strong Bad'''

*:'''COACH Z:''' I'm Kool Moe Dee! You know, from The Treacherous 3?
*:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, see, I only saw Treacherous 1 and 2, so, um, I wouldn't know.

== Fun Facts ==
===Explanations===
*When Homestar says "I told you I'd get a million libs of candy", he is trying to pronounce the abbreviation of pounds: "lbs".
*[[Wikipedia:Cosplay|Cosplay]] (as mentioned in Stinkoman's greeting) is a form of dress-up done usually at anime conventions, where people dress up as anime characters they enjoy.

===Trivia===
*Bit o' Honey, [[Wikipedia:Zagnut|Zagnut]], and [[Wikipedia:Swedish fish|Swedish Fish]] are actual candies.
*The sound the King of Town makes when he eats the candy corn lights is the same as when he eats the food flung at him in the game [[Revenge of the King]].
*There are a total of ten easter eggs in this cartoon, even more than the Strong Bad Email [[flashback]].

===Remarks===
*When Homestar says "someone is grabbing my butt," it is most likely Bubs, since he is right behind Homestar. Or his imagination.
**His line may be a reference to [[1 step ahead]].
**On the other hand, since Coach Z is also behind Homestar, and Homestar is next to Marzipan, it might have been Coach Z aiming for Marzipan.
*This Halloween episode carries on the tradition in which a secret scene with Homsar is activated by interacting with the Poopsmith somehow.
*In every other Halloween episode (except the first, for the obvious reason that Homsar didn't exist yet), activating Homsar causes him to appear with the rest of the group at the end. This episode is the exception—whether or not you activate Homsar or Stinkoman, they do not appear at the end.
*This is one of the first times that Coach Z demonstrates his ability to speak without his trademark Upper Midwestern accent.
*The rings around The Cheat's right "foot" (part of his Izzy costume) may suggest that this portion of his anatomy is actually a tail.
*When Homestar and Pom Pom are walking together, you can see that Homestar's wig shakes, but Pom Pom's necklace stays in place.

===Goofs===
*When The Cheat and The Brothers Strong leave The Stick after their deal with the King of Town, The Cheat's torch reappears in his hand/paw.

===Inside References===
*The Cheat's costume refers to the first Homestar Runner book, which was written during the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta when Mike Chapman was a light rigger for the Australian telecasts of those games.
*Strong Bad references the first Halloween toon when he says "I'm Carmen freakin Miranda!" and the second Halloween toon when he says "I'm Carmen freakin Sandiego!"
*The Delicious "Bag" is a reference to [[Mr. Shmallow (toon)|Mr. Shmallow]].
*This toon marks the fourth time [[Witches' Brew]], an inside joke of tremendous proportions, has been mentioned.
*[[Van Buren]]'s face is on the coins given to Homestar at the beginning, marking yet another relatively-famed inside joke.
*Though now focused on the King of Town's castle, Strong Bad previously wanted to "egg the everloving crap" out of Marzipan's house in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 7]].
*Bubs' line "I remember this house from a couple of years ago.", as well as the whole scene, is an obvious reference to [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].
*Strong Mad also had visible chest hairs in [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (toon)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]].
*Stinkoman's dance makes the same sound as [[Pan Pan]]'s eating/talking sound.

===Real-World References===
*If you give Stinkoman the jar with "[[Wikipedia:Akira (film)|Akira]]" on it you will get a surprise from the Anime movie of the same name.
*[[Wikipedia:Yoo-Hoo|Yoo-Hoo]] is the name of a chocolate soft drink that is popular in America.
*Coach Z's mention of Strong Sad's beautiful house and beautiful wife is a reference to the Talking Heads' song "Once in a Lifetime".
*Coach Z's old school rap is the beginning of the fourth verse of the Geto Boys' "Mind Playin Tricks On Me".
*The line "I'm a demon on wheels!" from Stinkoman's intro is taken from the [[Wikipedia:Speed Racer|Speed Racer]] theme song.
* In the scene where Strong Sad is chanting Credenza's name by himself with Marzipan in the room, his voice sounds like it's reversed. This is a reference to certain scenes in the Twin Peaks series, where scenes were filmed with the actors speaking their lines backwards, then played in reverse. The lines ended up being "reversed" twice, making them understandable, but sounding very creepy.
* The flaming maneuver the Poopsmith does when you click on him is M. Bison's Psycho Crusher attack from [[Wikipedia:Street Fighter|Street Fighter]].
*When Strong Mad bashes a hole in the house he yells "Higgins!!" This is a reference to the show [[Wikipedia:Magnum, P.I.|Magnum, P.I.]] Higgins was Tom Selleck's boss in that show.
*The line Homestar says to Coach Z at the end of the toon, "I really like your Wesley Snakes outfit.", is likely a reference to [[Wikipedia:Wesley Snipes|Wesley Snipes]], the actor who played the character Blade in all 3 [[Wikipedia:Blade_(movie)|Blade]] movies.
*"Robble! Robble!" was the Hamburglar's catch phrase.
*The photo of Marzipan's dead plant that appears in the introduction and during the seance resembles "Chuck the Plant" from various LucasArts Adventure Games.
*[[Wikipedia:El DeBarge|El DeBarge]] and [[Wikipedia:Terence Trent D'Arby|Terence Trent D'Arby]] are 80's r&b artists, and [[Wikipedia:Miami Sound Machine|Miami Sound Machine]] is an 80's salsa band best known for their lead singer Gloria Estefan.

Xyzzyka: /* Accomplishments */

==About Xyzzyka==
Xyzzyka is a seventeen-year-old modestly hot girl. She likes the Traveling Wilburys (Charlie T. is ''totally'' the sexiest guy ever), Douglas Adams, Doctor Who, and so forth. She reads about thirty different webcomics (although she's about a year behind on most of them), dabbles in text adventures/interactive fiction (hence the username), and draws and reads a lot.

She's also not terribly interested in fleshing out this page. Maybe eventually I'll add links, but mleh.

===How to pronounce Xyzzyka===
The name Xyzzyka is derived from the magic word XYZZY (insert explanation here). Due to the textual format in which it was first used, no one is quite sure how to pronounce xyzzy (some claim the first letter is not a Roman "ex" but a Greek "chi" - utter rubbish in my opinion.). However, since I made up the name Xyzzyka, it uses my preferred pronounciation - "zizzy". Therefore, the name Xyzzyka can be said "zizzyka", "zizzaka", or "zizz(schwa)ka", depending on how much of a hurry you're in.

====Other notes====
I've sort of made up a character to go with the name Xyzzyka. If anyone's interested, her full name is Xyzzyka Songlantern Gruefrotzer. The last name in particular is hilarious for various complicated reasons.

==Accomplishments==
Pretty much the only thing I do is add fonts to the [[Fonts]] page. So far I've added Action Is, Alba, Alba Super, Blackadder, Chiller, French Script MT, Freshbot, Harlow Solid Italic, Harting, Jokerman, Peanuts, Pornhut, and Sevenet. Um...yeah. I have a bit of a thing with fonts. Meh.

Speaking of such, I also do a killer the Cheat impression. Meh!

Xyzzyka: /* Pom Pilot Font (From the bird) */

==To-do list==
Remove them from the list when you find them. Add more as appropriate.
*The "electricity"-style font used on [[Awexome Cross]]
*The door on [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]]
*The [[HR:main_nav.swf|NavBar]]
*[[Strong Bad's Message Bored]]
*The buttons from [[Main Page 22]]
*The [[Toons Menu]]
*The "[[Tee Bee]]" logo on Homestar's TV
*The subtitles in [[The Isle of Pom]]
*The credits and "Stinko Man K 20X6" logo from [[japanese cartoon]]
*The [[Thnikkaman]]'s offscreen chorus
*The [[Highlights FAQ]]
*The fonts along the spines of the books on the bookshelf in [[That A Ghost]]

===Figured one out?===

:I think the navbar is just Arial. That's what I'm using in the mirror stylesheets. See [http://hrwiki.org/mirror/jumpinjacks2.html jumpinjacks2.html] for an example.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 12:45, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I think the Thnikkaman's chorus might be Cooper Black? --[[User:71.244.185.34|71.244.185.34]] 00:40, 12 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I read the new additions after adding the font Alba to the list...which was on one of the books. Anyway the sample of Alba on the book is much better than the example I'd had, so I've changed the entry accordingly. One down, a...lot to go. -- [[User:Xyzzyka|Xyzzyka]] 18:06, 22 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I think I've figured out the Stinko Man K 20X6 font. Playing Starcraft, one avid fan should realize that the font is Eurostar Black Extended. Am I right or am I right? -[[User:BurninatorBoombox&Markie|MK and/or BurnBox]] 00:23, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:EDIT: Okay, so I tried whatthefont.com, and I came down to these fonts:
*Microgramma EF Medium Extended
*Microgramma Medium Extend
*Aggie URW T Normal
*Microgramma D Medium Extended
*Eurostile T Regular Extended

==Links==
This isn't linked to from anywhere, but it's useful information that I don't think is found anywhere else on the wiki, or perhaps I'm mistaken. — {{User:JoeyDay/sig}} 18:51, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

:I have linked it a bit. I like fonts, and this makes a great page, and a great 1,000th article. Continue rocking on! [[User:Drhaggis|<nowiki></nowiki>]]- [[User:Drhaggis|Dr Haggis]] - [[User talk: Drhaggis|Talk]]

== VOY DOT LCD ==

Does anybody know where I can find this font? I've searched the internet for it for about a month now, but haven't found anything. --[[User:Gafaddict|Gafaddict]] 18:59, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

== Thousandth article ==
This is the HR Wiki's 1,000th article. Just letting everybody know.

:<s>Uh, no it's not. We already [[Talk:Game Sightings|determined]] [[Game Sightings]] was the 1,000th article. — {{User:JoeyDay/sig}} 17:32, 17 May 2005 (UTC)</s>

:Wait, did a few pages get deleted somewhere? I just checked the [[Special:Newpages]] page and it looks like this really is the thousandth article. Wow! I feel strangely honored to have been a part of this. I never imagined we'd reach a thousand articles back when I started the wiki. Good jorb, everyone! — {{User:JoeyDay/sig}} 18:13, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

::No, I don't think it has anything to do with deleted pages. The number on the [[Main Page]] doesn't include pages marked as [[:Category:Stubs|stubs]], so as pages are marked and un-marked as stubs, the number changes accordingly. [[Game Sightings]] was the first page to be the 1,000th page. [[Fonts]] appears to be the 1,000th page right now, but if someone marked an article as a stub in a few minutes, the page created after [[Fonts]] (which right now is [[do over]]) would appear to be the 1,000th page.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:36, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

==Font Examples==

Would it be possible to write a little example of each font? I'm not much one for that sort of 'hacking, coding' type thing, so if anyone else wants to tackle it - provided it's possible to do so while still properly [[HRWiki:Validation committee|validated]] and whatnot, go right ahead. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 18:44, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

:I don't know where the "hacking, coding" comes in, but why not take a screenshot of each of the fonts as used on the site? — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 18:56, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

::Ah right, that could work. I just meant hacking and coding as in 'you can't just change the font on the wiki with a little dropdown bar', at least I don't think you can... I just think it would look cleaner than screenshots. But if it's not possible, I'll get on the screenshots. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 07:56, 21 May 2005 (UTC)

:::It's not possible. If you change the font of a bit of text on a web page, it only shows up in that font if the visitor has that font installed. Anyway, if you want it to look "cleaner", I just suggest that you make each screenshot the same dimensions. — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 20:51, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

:I've now added previews. However they're not the same size, and they could be presented better. But, at least we have previews for now. {{User:Rainer/sig}} 11:59, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

::And now I've put it all in a table. {{User:Rainer/sig}} 02:31, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

:::We don't need to see every character, which only serves to stretch out the table so it doesn't fit on one or one and a half screens. What is better is to see how each font is used on the site in a representative screenshot. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 07:13, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::: I do see where you're coming from, and I don't care enough to argue the point. But I also see where Trogga and The Paper are coming from. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:16, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::::I think the "Quick brown fox" examples are too big. Having screenshots of the fonts in use on H*R.com is better because you can see where its used (even if they are all different sizes). {{User:Rainer/sig}} 07:55, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

== External Links ==

Shouldn't there be a link to a spot to download the font? [[User:Ed smildE|EDSMILDE]]

:That would be ideal. However, before doing so make sure that the font is free. This will take some research because a lot of fonts that aren't meant to be free are available illegally on some free font sites, and linking to those is out of the question. In other words, just because a font is on some free font site doesn't mean that it's legal, so be very very careful. — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 21:03, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

== Additional fonts used on main pages? ==

<s>I've found a few fonts that aren't on this page, but are used somewhere on the [[Homsar Main Page]]. I downloaded the .fla of the main page from one of the [[Links#Fan Sites|fansites]], but when I open it in Flash, it tells me that I do not have the following fonts installed: </s>

::I think he's talking about the font on the screen, and that is definitely ''not'' Trebuchet. The font on the screen is pixelated. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:42, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::Exactly. Just pointing out an unknown font. For whatever it's worth. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 22:48, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

==Stub==
Why is this page a stub? It looks complete to me. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 15:50, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:Because there are a ''lot'' of fonts on the site that we haven't yet added to the table. Just off the top of my head, I can think of the "electricity"-style font used on Awexome Cross, fonts in old toons, and stuff on things like fliers. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:10, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

And don't forget about the Door on [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], or the [[HR:main_nav.swf|NavBar]], and [[Strong Bad's Message Bored]], or the ones on the buttons from [[Main Page 22]], and the [[Toons Menu]], and the "TeeBee" logo on the Homestar's TV, or the subtitles in [[The Isle of Pom]], and maybe even the Stinkoman K 20X6 logo, and "[[Thnikkaman]]'s offscreen chorus, ooh, and don't forget the Highlights FAQ... (man I could go on for ''days'' thinking about the numbers of fonts on the site) — {{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 01:16, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Xyzzyka: /* Accomplishments */

==About Xyzzyka==
Xyzzyka is a seventeen-year-old modestly hot girl. She likes the Traveling Wilburys (Charlie T. is ''totally'' the sexiest guy ever), Douglas Adams, Doctor Who, and so forth. She reads about thirty different webcomics (although she's about a year behind on most of them), dabbles in text adventures/interactive fiction (hence the username), and draws and reads a lot.

She's also not terribly interested in fleshing out this page. Maybe eventually I'll add links, but mleh.

===How to pronounce Xyzzyka===
The name Xyzzyka is derived from the magic word XYZZY (insert explanation here). Due to the textual format in which it was first used, no one is quite sure how to pronounce xyzzy (some claim the first letter is not a Roman "ex" but a Greek "chi" - utter rubbish in my opinion.). However, since I made up the name Xyzzyka, it uses my preferred pronounciation - "zizzy". Therefore, the name Xyzzyka can be said "zizzyka", "zizzaka", or "zizz(schwa)ka", depending on how much of a hurry you're in.

====Other notes====
I've sort of made up a character to go with the name Xyzzyka. If anyone's interested, her full name is Xyzzyka Songlantern Gruefrotzer. The last name in particular is hilarious for various complicated reasons.

==Accomplishments==
Pretty much the only thing I do is add fonts to the [[Fonts]] page. So far I've added Action Is, Alba, Alba Super, Blackadder, Chiller, French Script MT, Freshbot, Harlow Solid Italic, Harting, Jokerman, Peanuts, Pornhut, and Sevenet 7. Um...yeah. I have a bit of a thing with fonts. Meh.

Speaking of such, I also do a killer the Cheat impression. Meh!

Xyzzyka: /* Pom Pilot Font (From the bird) */

==To-do list==
Remove them from the list when you find them. Add more as appropriate.
*The "electricity"-style font used on [[Awexome Cross]]
*The door on [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]]
*The [[HR:main_nav.swf|NavBar]]
*[[Strong Bad's Message Bored]]
*The buttons from [[Main Page 22]]
*The [[Toons Menu]]
*The "[[Tee Bee]]" logo on Homestar's TV
*The subtitles in [[The Isle of Pom]]
*The credits and "Stinko Man K 20X6" logo from [[japanese cartoon]]
*The [[Thnikkaman]]'s offscreen chorus
*The [[Highlights FAQ]]
*The fonts along the spines of the books on the bookshelf in [[That A Ghost]]

===Figured one out?===

:I think the navbar is just Arial. That's what I'm using in the mirror stylesheets. See [http://hrwiki.org/mirror/jumpinjacks2.html jumpinjacks2.html] for an example.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 12:45, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I think the Thnikkaman's chorus might be Cooper Black? --[[User:71.244.185.34|71.244.185.34]] 00:40, 12 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I read the new additions after adding the font Alba to the list...which was on one of the books. Anyway the sample of Alba on the book is much better than the example I'd had, so I've changed the entry accordingly. One down, a...lot to go. -- [[User:Xyzzyka|Xyzzyka]] 18:06, 22 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I think I've figured out the Stinko Man K 20X6 font. Playing Starcraft, one avid fan should realize that the font is Eurostar Black Extended. Am I right or am I right? -[[User:BurninatorBoombox&Markie|MK and/or BurnBox]] 00:23, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:EDIT: Okay, so I tried whatthefont.com, and I came down to these fonts:
*Microgramma EF Medium Extended
*Microgramma Medium Extend
*Aggie URW T Normal
*Microgramma D Medium Extended
*Eurostile T Regular Extended
-[[User:BurninatorBoombox&Markie|MK and/or BurnBox]] 00:33, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)

==Links==
This isn't linked to from anywhere, but it's useful information that I don't think is found anywhere else on the wiki, or perhaps I'm mistaken. — {{User:JoeyDay/sig}} 18:51, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

:I have linked it a bit. I like fonts, and this makes a great page, and a great 1,000th article. Continue rocking on! [[User:Drhaggis|<nowiki></nowiki>]]- [[User:Drhaggis|Dr Haggis]] - [[User talk: Drhaggis|Talk]]

== VOY DOT LCD ==

Does anybody know where I can find this font? I've searched the internet for it for about a month now, but haven't found anything. --[[User:Gafaddict|Gafaddict]] 18:59, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

== Thousandth article ==
This is the HR Wiki's 1,000th article. Just letting everybody know.

:<s>Uh, no it's not. We already [[Talk:Game Sightings|determined]] [[Game Sightings]] was the 1,000th article. — {{User:JoeyDay/sig}} 17:32, 17 May 2005 (UTC)</s>

:Wait, did a few pages get deleted somewhere? I just checked the [[Special:Newpages]] page and it looks like this really is the thousandth article. Wow! I feel strangely honored to have been a part of this. I never imagined we'd reach a thousand articles back when I started the wiki. Good jorb, everyone! — {{User:JoeyDay/sig}} 18:13, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

::No, I don't think it has anything to do with deleted pages. The number on the [[Main Page]] doesn't include pages marked as [[:Category:Stubs|stubs]], so as pages are marked and un-marked as stubs, the number changes accordingly. [[Game Sightings]] was the first page to be the 1,000th page. [[Fonts]] appears to be the 1,000th page right now, but if someone marked an article as a stub in a few minutes, the page created after [[Fonts]] (which right now is [[do over]]) would appear to be the 1,000th page.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:36, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

==Font Examples==

Would it be possible to write a little example of each font? I'm not much one for that sort of 'hacking, coding' type thing, so if anyone else wants to tackle it - provided it's possible to do so while still properly [[HRWiki:Validation committee|validated]] and whatnot, go right ahead. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 18:44, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

:I don't know where the "hacking, coding" comes in, but why not take a screenshot of each of the fonts as used on the site? — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 18:56, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

::Ah right, that could work. I just meant hacking and coding as in 'you can't just change the font on the wiki with a little dropdown bar', at least I don't think you can... I just think it would look cleaner than screenshots. But if it's not possible, I'll get on the screenshots. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 07:56, 21 May 2005 (UTC)

:::It's not possible. If you change the font of a bit of text on a web page, it only shows up in that font if the visitor has that font installed. Anyway, if you want it to look "cleaner", I just suggest that you make each screenshot the same dimensions. — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 20:51, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

:I've now added previews. However they're not the same size, and they could be presented better. But, at least we have previews for now. {{User:Rainer/sig}} 11:59, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

::And now I've put it all in a table. {{User:Rainer/sig}} 02:31, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

I think the examples should look more like this:

--[[User:Trogga|TROGGA!]] 19:33, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

:Ugh! The old font samples were ''way'' superior. First, they didn't take up as much space. Second, they provided a better context for the fonts. If someone wants to see all the characters of a font, they should go to Wikipedia or [http://myfonts.com MyFonts.com]. Reverting... — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 07:01, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:: Which, as I can see, is not what happened in the last edit. My bad. I'm actually kinda siding with the big Quick Brown Fox blocks... --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:07, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::We don't need to see every character, which only serves to stretch out the table so it doesn't fit on one or one and a half screens. What is better is to see how each font is used on the site in a representative screenshot. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 07:13, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::: I do see where you're coming from, and I don't care enough to argue the point. But I also see where Trogga and The Paper are coming from. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:16, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::::I think the "Quick brown fox" examples are too big. Having screenshots of the fonts in use on H*R.com is better because you can see where its used (even if they are all different sizes). {{User:Rainer/sig}} 07:55, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

== External Links ==

Shouldn't there be a link to a spot to download the font? [[User:Ed smildE|EDSMILDE]]

:That would be ideal. However, before doing so make sure that the font is free. This will take some research because a lot of fonts that aren't meant to be free are available illegally on some free font sites, and linking to those is out of the question. In other words, just because a font is on some free font site doesn't mean that it's legal, so be very very careful. — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 21:03, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

== Additional fonts used on main pages? ==

<s>I've found a few fonts that aren't on this page, but are used somewhere on the [[Homsar Main Page]]. I downloaded the .fla of the main page from one of the [[Links#Fan Sites|fansites]], but when I open it in Flash, it tells me that I do not have the following fonts installed: </s>
Bauhaus-Thin: The menu page buttons (i.e. Toons, Games, Characters, Downloads, Store, and Email). 
Comix Heavy: The little bit in the top right corner of [[HR:newbutton.swf|this]]. (The "LAST UPDATED ON" font.) 
Potrzebie: Already on the font page. 
Stencil BT: The font on the [[Heavy Lourde]]. 
<s>Anyone have any idea where these are used on that main page? --{{User:Venusy/Sig}}, 12:34, 29 May 2005 (BST)</s> 
EDIT: Nevermind, I found them, and where they go. --{{User:Venusy/Sig}}, 07:40, 8 July 2005 (BST)

==Menu Font==
On Tangerine Dreams, the menu font is not quite the same the one on my Mac OS 9, it's slightly different from [http://www.coolstufffordudes.i8.com/os9menu.html this] one. Should I add that? --{{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 18:08, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:The picture included in the website you linked to appears to be broken. Do you have another example?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 18:30, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

::Notice that the article page has been corrected to read "versions '''7''' and before." Apple switched from Chicago to a font called Charcoal for Mac OS versions 8 and 9. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:52, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Yes, Charcoal is one of my favortie fonts. --{{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 16:03, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

My signature is now officially in [http://www.coolstufffordudes.i8.com/Charcoal.ttf CHARCOAL!!!] I aslo have [http://www.coolstufffodudes.i8.com/Chicago.ttf Chicago].

== [[Pom Pilot]] Font (From [[the bird]]) ==

Which font is this? Is it already covered as one of the fonts, and if so, which one? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 00:33, 20 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:Wow, been a while since i been here, but yes, the font is called Trebuchet MS --TheDoggy

::I think he's talking about the font on the screen, and that is definitely ''not'' Trebuchet. The font on the screen is pixelated. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:42, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::Exactly. Just pointing out an unknown font. For whatever it's worth. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 22:48, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Solved. Ladies and gentlemen, Sevenet 7. [[User:Xyzzyka|Xyzzyka]] 07:10, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

==Stub==
Why is this page a stub? It looks complete to me. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 15:50, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:Because there are a ''lot'' of fonts on the site that we haven't yet added to the table. Just off the top of my head, I can think of the "electricity"-style font used on Awexome Cross, fonts in old toons, and stuff on things like fliers. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:10, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

And don't forget about the Door on [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], or the [[HR:main_nav.swf|NavBar]], and [[Strong Bad's Message Bored]], or the ones on the buttons from [[Main Page 22]], and the [[Toons Menu]], and the "TeeBee" logo on the Homestar's TV, or the subtitles in [[The Isle of Pom]], and maybe even the Stinkoman K 20X6 logo, and "[[Thnikkaman]]'s offscreen chorus, ooh, and don't forget the Highlights FAQ... (man I could go on for ''days'' thinking about the numbers of fonts on the site) — {{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 01:16, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I have made the preceding thread into a to-do list at the top of this page.

Xyzzyka:

User:Xyzzyka

2005-09-29T02:24:08Z

Xyzzyka: added accomplishment. meh.

==About Xyzzyka==
Xyzzyka is a seventeen-year-old modestly hot girl. She likes the Traveling Wilburys (Charlie T. is ''totally'' the sexiest guy ever), Douglas Adams, Doctor Who, and so forth. She reads about thirty different webcomics (although she's about a year behind on most of them), dabbles in text adventures/interactive fiction (hence the username), and draws and reads a lot.

She's also not terribly interested in fleshing out this page. Maybe eventually I'll add links, but mleh.

===How to pronounce Xyzzyka===
The name Xyzzyka is derived from the magic word XYZZY (insert explanation here). Due to the textual format in which it was first used, no one is quite sure how to pronounce xyzzy (some claim the first letter is not a Roman "ex" but a Greek "chi" - utter rubbish in my opinion.). However, since I made up the name Xyzzyka, it uses my preferred pronounciation - "zizzy". Therefore, the name Xyzzyka can be said "zizzyka", "zizzaka", or "zizz(schwa)ka", depending on how much of a hurry you're in.

====Other notes====
I've sort of made up a character to go with the name Xyzzyka. If anyone's interested, her full name is Xyzzyka Songlantern Gruefrotzer. The last name in particular is hilarious for various complicated reasons.

==Accomplishments==
Pretty much the only thing I do is add fonts to the [[Fonts]] page. So far I've added Action Is, Alba, Alba Super, Blackadder, Chiller, French Script MT, Freshbot, Harlow Solid Italic, Harting, Jokerman, Peanuts, and Pornhut. Um...yeah. I have a bit of a thing with fonts. Meh.

Speaking of such, I also do a killer the Cheat impression. Meh!

Xyzzyka: /* Figured one out? */

==To-do list==
Remove them from the list when you find them. Add more as appropriate.
*The "electricity"-style font used on [[Awexome Cross]]
*The door on [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]]
*The [[HR:main_nav.swf|NavBar]]
*[[Strong Bad's Message Bored]]
*The buttons from [[Main Page 22]]
*The [[Toons Menu]]
*The "[[Tee Bee]]" logo on Homestar's TV
*The subtitles in [[The Isle of Pom]]
*The credits and "Stinko Man K 20X6" logo from [[japanese cartoon]]
*The [[Thnikkaman]]'s offscreen chorus
*The [[Highlights FAQ]]
*The fonts along the spines of the books on the bookshelf in [[That A Ghost]]

===Figured one out?===

:I think the navbar is just Arial. That's what I'm using in the mirror stylesheets. See [http://hrwiki.org/mirror/jumpinjacks2.html jumpinjacks2.html] for an example.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 12:45, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I think the Thnikkaman's chorus might be Cooper Black? --[[User:71.244.185.34|71.244.185.34]] 00:40, 12 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I read the new additions after adding the font Alba to the list...which was on one of the books. Anyway the sample of Alba on the book is much better than the example I'd had, so I've changed the entry accordingly. One down, a...lot to go. -- [[User:Xyzzyka|Xyzzyka]] 18:06, 22 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:Wait, did a few pages get deleted somewhere? I just checked the [[Special:Newpages]] page and it looks like this really is the thousandth article. Wow! I feel strangely honored to have been a part of this. I never imagined we'd reach a thousand articles back when I started the wiki. Good jorb, everyone! — {{User:JoeyDay/sig}} 18:13, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

The number on the [[Main Page]] doesn't include pages marked as [[:Category:Stubs|stubs]], so as pages are marked and un-marked as stubs, the number changes accordingly. [[Game Sightings]] was the first page to be the 1,000th page. [[Fonts]] appears to be the 1,000th page right now, but if someone marked an article as a stub in a few minutes, the page created after [[Fonts]] (which right now is [[do over]]) would appear to be the 1,000th page.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:36, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

==Font Examples==

Would it be possible to write a little example of each font? I'm not much one for that sort of 'hacking, coding' type thing, so if anyone else wants to tackle it - provided it's possible to do so while still properly [[HRWiki:Validation committee|validated]] and whatnot, go right ahead. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 18:44, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

:I don't know where the "hacking, coding" comes in, but why not take a screenshot of each of the fonts as used on the site? — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 18:56, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

::Ah right, that could work. I just meant hacking and coding as in 'you can't just change the font on the wiki with a little dropdown bar', at least I don't think you can... I just think it would look cleaner than screenshots. But if it's not possible, I'll get on the screenshots. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 07:56, 21 May 2005 (UTC)

:::It's not possible. If you change the font of a bit of text on a web page, it only shows up in that font if the visitor has that font installed. Anyway, if you want it to look "cleaner", I just suggest that you make each screenshot the same dimensions. — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 20:51, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

:I've now added previews. However they're not the same size, and they could be presented better. But, at least we have previews for now. {{User:Rainer/sig}} 11:59, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

::And now I've put it all in a table. {{User:Rainer/sig}} 02:31, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

I think the examples should look more like this:

--[[User:Trogga|TROGGA!]] 19:33, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

:Ugh! The old font samples were ''way'' superior. First, they didn't take up as much space. Second, they provided a better context for the fonts. If someone wants to see all the characters of a font, they should go to Wikipedia or [http://myfonts.com MyFonts.com]. Reverting... — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 07:01, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:<strike>And on a side note, does it not ruin the entire point of the Quick Brown Fox if you Capitalize Every Single Word? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:05, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)</strike>

:: Which, as I can see, is not what happened in the last edit. My bad. I'm actually kinda siding with the big Quick Brown Fox blocks... --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:07, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::We don't need to see every character, which only serves to stretch out the table so it doesn't fit on one or one and a half screens. What is better is to see how each font is used on the site in a representative screenshot. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 07:13, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::: I do see where you're coming from, and I don't care enough to argue the point. But I also see where Trogga and The Paper are coming from. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:16, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::::I think the "Quick brown fox" examples are too big. Having screenshots of the fonts in use on H*R.com is better because you can see where its used (even if they are all different sizes). {{User:Rainer/sig}} 07:55, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)

== External Links ==

Shouldn't there be a link to a spot to download the font? [[User:Ed smildE|EDSMILDE]]

:That would be ideal. However, before doing so make sure that the font is free. This will take some research because a lot of fonts that aren't meant to be free are available illegally on some free font sites, and linking to those is out of the question. In other words, just because a font is on some free font site doesn't mean that it's legal, so be very very careful. — [[User:InterruptorJones|InterruptorJones]] 21:03, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

== Additional fonts used on main pages? ==

<s>I've found a few fonts that aren't on this page, but are used somewhere on the [[Homsar Main Page]]. I downloaded the .fla of the main page from one of the [[Links#Fan Sites|fansites]], but when I open it in Flash, it tells me that I do not have the following fonts installed: </s>
Bauhaus-Thin: The menu page buttons (i.e. Toons, Games, Characters, Downloads, Store, and Email). 
Comix Heavy: The little bit in the top right corner of [[HR:newbutton.swf|this]]. (The "LAST UPDATED ON" font.) 
Potrzebie: Already on the font page. 
Stencil BT: The font on the [[Heavy Lourde]]. 
<s>Anyone have any idea where these are used on that main page? --{{User:Venusy/Sig}}, 12:34, 29 May 2005 (BST)</s> 
EDIT: Nevermind, I found them, and where they go. --{{User:Venusy/Sig}}, 07:40, 8 July 2005 (BST)

==Menu Font==
On Tangerine Dreams, the menu font is not quite the same the one on my Mac OS 9, it's slightly different from [http://www.coolstufffordudes.i8.com/os9menu.html this] one. Should I add that? --{{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 18:08, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:The picture included in the website you linked to appears to be broken. Do you have another example?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 18:30, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

::Notice that the article page has been corrected to read "versions '''7''' and before." Apple switched from Chicago to a font called Charcoal for Mac OS versions 8 and 9. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:52, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Yes, Charcoal is one of my favortie fonts. --{{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 16:03, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

You can also go [http://www.coolstufffordudes.i8.com/charcoal.html to this page] to see what it looks like. Or you can choose to download it from there aswell. --{{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 16:16, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

My signature is now officially in [http://www.coolstufffordudes.i8.com/Charcoal.ttf CHARCOAL!!!] I aslo have [http://www.coolstufffodudes.i8.com/Chicago.ttf Chicago]. You can link the links to download the two fonts and comapre them if you don't already have them. --{{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 23:39, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

== [[Pom Pilot]] Font (From [[the bird]]) ==

Which font is this? Is it already covered as one of the fonts, and if so, which one? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 00:33, 20 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:Wow, been a while since i been here, but yes, the font is called Trebuchet MS --TheDoggy

::I think he's talking about the font on the screen, and that is definitely ''not'' Trebuchet. The font on the screen is pixelated. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:42, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::Exactly. Just pointing out an unknown font. For whatever it's worth. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 22:48, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

==Stub==
Why is this page a stub? It looks complete to me. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 15:50, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:Because there are a ''lot'' of fonts on the site that we haven't yet added to the table. Just off the top of my head, I can think of the "electricity"-style font used on Awexome Cross, fonts in old toons, and stuff on things like fliers. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:10, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

And don't forget about the Door on [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], or the [[HR:main_nav.swf|NavBar]], and [[Strong Bad's Message Bored]], or the ones on the buttons from [[Main Page 22]], and the [[Toons Menu]], and the "TeeBee" logo on the Homestar's TV, or the subtitles in [[The Isle of Pom]], and maybe even the Stinkoman K 20X6 logo, and "[[Thnikkaman]]'s offscreen chorus, ooh, and don't forget the Highlights FAQ... (man I could go on for ''days'' thinking about the numbers of fonts on the site) — {{User:Darklinkskywalker/DLSsignature}} 01:16, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I have made the preceding thread into a to-do list at the top of this page.

Dude, I like what you are doing with the [[Fonts]] page. Keep up the good work! {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 18:41, 20 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:Yes, me too. That takes some serious skill to be able to identify fonts like that. Good prize! --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

Oh, well, I'm just lucky. I'm a bit of a free font addict; all but one of the fonts I've added are either on my computer now, or were once on a computer previously owned by me. As for the other one (Action Is), I just happened to recognize it due to it being on so many free font sites.

I also already had Ahnberghand. Heh. -- [[User:Xyzzyka|Xyzzyka]] 03:50, 22 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:Dear Xyzzyka Songlantern Gruefrotzer, do you like graphic design in addition to drawing, or are you just intrigued by fonts? If you should ever find yourself stumped, may I recommend [http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ What the Font] and, to a lesser degree, [http://www.identifont.com/ Identifont]. Both have been invaluable to me (I work for a commercial printing company). Again good jorb! — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:31, 22 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:Well, I'm taking graphic design, since it's a way to make money at drawing. ;) ...I think I tried those two once, but couldn't get the answers right...I was trying to find the font used for the logo of the webcomic [http://megatokyo.com/ Megatokyo]. Anyway after several days of travel and travail, it turned out the font I was looking for was not only on my computer, but the first font I had ever downloaded: Holstein. Madness, I say, madness. :P -- [[User:Xyzzyka|Xyzzyka]] 17:54, 22 Sep 2005 (UTC)
